Identification of the key differentially expressed genes and pathways involved in neutrophilia.

ABSTRACT: Polymorphonuclear neutrophils (PMNs) are the most important determinants in the acute inflammatory response. Pathologically increased numbers of PMNs in the circulation or specific tissues (or both) lead to neutrophilia. However, the genes expressed and pathways involved in neutrophilia have yet to be elucidated. By analysis of three public microarray datasets related to neutrophilia (GSE64457, GSE54644, and GSE94923) and evaluation by gene ontology, pathway enrichment, protein-protein interaction networks, and hub genes analysis using multiple methods (DAVID, PATHER, Reactome, STRING, Reactome FI Plugin, and CytoHubba in Cytoscape), we identified the commonly up-regulated and down-regulated different expressed genes. We also discovered that multiple signaling pathways (IL-mediated, LPS-me
